Its REALLY official. I finally took possession of my Swift
I got it several days ago. This my first bicycle purchase in almost 35 years and I am really excited about having it. I want to thank Wav and the other members for this forum for helping me, in making the decision to get a folder and specifically, the Swift folder.
Peter no longer sells steel frame but got in a used steel frame on a trade in, so I took it and he customized it for me. It's equipped with a 9sp 11-34 cassette and 54/39 chain rings. I had him put on Marathon Plus tires. It rides real well. I can't tell that I am riding a folder. Since I have only ridden with dropdown bars, i'll have to get used to the straight bars. I'll be travelling a majority of the year, so this will be my only bike i'll be using. I will miss the speed of a fast road bike but not enough to travel with 2 bikes. I'll be getting planet bike fenders, a compass bell, cyclecomputer, a topeak morph pump and a seatpost rack.
